My Lady, To Defeat Scumbags You Must Start Early

Chapter 563: Chapter 562: Yin Qin’s First Failure in the Pursuit of His Wife (Second Update)

In the room.

Yin Qin tried to keep himself calm, refusing to act impulsively.

He heard that women generally dislike men who think with their lower halves.

So, he had to appear completely unassuming and innocent.

He adjusted his emotions in secret, then turned to Luo Xiaolang and said, “It’s dinner time.”

“Not eating.” Luo Xiaolang directly turned him down without sparring a second thought.

She planned to order takeout.

She had been relying on takeout these past few days as Joe was too busy.

Although Joe’s studio had a dedicated cook, Xiaolang rarely joined them for meals, not wanting to interrupt their training.

Whenever there was a competition, their schedules would usually be extremely tight.

Apart from basic operational training, Joe would also guide them through other supplementary exercises such as physical fitness, emotion control, strategies and tactics, and so on.

She took out her phone.

Just as she opened the delivery app, Yin Qin suddenly snatched her phone away.

Luo Xiaolang furrowed her brows.

Yin Qin said, “Dinner is already ready, let’s eat together.”

“I said I don’t want to eat.”

“I promise it’s delicious.” Yin Qin confidently assured her.

Luo Xiaolang looked at him coldly.

Yin Qin felt that at this moment Luo Xiaolang was holding back the urge to punch him.

Considering she was suppressing it, he figured she wouldn’t actually hit him.

So, he boldly reached out to grab her.

Luo Xiaolang became angry, “Don’t touch me!”

“If you don’t eat, I’ll keep bothering you. Regardless, I am just that annoying.”

“Yin Qin, are you out of your freaking mind?!”

“Hmm, yes, I am.” Yin Qin admitted readily.

Being hopelessly in love with you is a kind of illness indeed.

Luo Xiaolang was really sick of Yin Qin.

However, Yin Qin feigned ignorance on purpose, saying, “I will leave as soon as we finish dinner, I promise I will not bother you sleeping with Joe tonight.”

Luo Xiaolang was skeptical.

“I always do as I say.”

“You’ve never followed through on your words.” Luo Xiaolang bluntly pointed out.

Yin Qin felt a pang in his heart.

In Luo Xiaolang’s eyes, he might be worth less than a penny.

He thought it over.

If he’s already worthless, why bother pretending at all?!

He stated annoyingly, “If you don’t agree to dinner tonight, you can beat me to death, but I won’t leave.”

Luo Xiaolang really wanted to beat him to death.

However, at that moment she chose to have dinner with him instead.

Only because she noticed the fresh cuts on Yin Qin’s fingers.

It was easy to conclude that these wounds were from the food preparation.

Knowing Yin Qin, him having prepared the whole dinner without chopping off a finger was a miracle in itself.

She got up and walked to the dining room.

Yin Qin breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, Luo Xiaolang really found him annoying and couldn’t wait for him to leave.

Together, they walked to the dining table.

Luo Xiaolang surveyed the three poorly presented dishes on the table.

What kind of meat was that?

All she saw were lumps of something charred black.

Was that even egg?

Were eggshells a part of the meal too?

The tomatoes were raw, seemingly tossed straight into the eggs.

And the vegetable tofu soup.

It looked more like yellow vegetable tofu soup, the once green leaves now appeared completely malnourished.

Luo Xiaolang’s throat twitched.

Truth be told, looking at the dishes in front of her, she completely lost her appetite.

She didn’t even want to pick up her chopsticks.

Contrarily, Yin Qin seemed very active, eagerly serving Luo Xiaolang the beef, placing eggs with eggshells into Luo Xiaolang’s bowl.

Luo Xiaolang simply could not bring herself to take a bite.

She said, “I’ll get the rice.”

She’d rather eat a bowl of plain white rice.

All of a sudden, Yin Qin went stiff.

Luo Xiaolang furrowed her brows at him.

Yin Qin looked somewhat embarrassed.

“You didn’t cook rice?” Luo Xiaolang asked.

He had been entirely preoccupied with cooking the meal and never thought of prepping the rice—he simply didn’t have this concept in mind.

Luo Xiaolang was tongue-tied.

Yin Qin quickly tried to save face, “Plain rice is not tasty anyway, it’s better to have more dishes.”

Saying so, he served Luo Xiaolang more dishes and separately, poured soup into an empty bowl for her.

Luo Xiaolang really didn’t want to touch her chopsticks.

Yin Qin stared at her anxiously.

Giving off a vibe as if he wanted her to sample his dinner preparation.

Luo Xiaolang gritted her teeth.

She first tried a piece of beef.

Hmm.

Well.

Aside from the lack of salt, the excessive sweetness, and the charred hardness, there were no other strange tastes.

Seeing Luo Xiaolang take a bite, Yin Qin hurriedly asked, “Is it good?”

Luo Xiaolang didn’t respond.

Did her silence suggest it wasn’t too bad?!

He then shamelessly suggested, “Why don’t you try the scrambled eggs with tomato.”

Luo Xiaolang didn’t want another piece of beef.

She picked up a piece of tomato, placed it into her mouth.

“Hmm.” Luo Xiaolang seemed to freeze for a moment.

Yin Qin looked at her.

Luo Xiaolang was really struggling to swallow it down.

She felt her mouthful of salt, so salty that she was about to spit it out.

“Doesn’t it taste good?” Yin Qin asked.

Luo Xiaolang kept her emotions in check.

She reached for the soup beside her, attempting to dilute the saltiness in her mouth.

After one sip.

She regretted it.

Because the soup was filled with a strong flavour of MSG.

Luo Xiaolang seriously started to question whether Yin Qin had confused salt, MSG, and sugar.

“What’s wrong?” Seeing Luo Xiaolang’s expression, Yin Qin began to seriously suspect there was something wrong with the taste of his dishes.

Luo Xiaolang really struggled to swallow down the food.

She said, “Yin Qin, I really can’t play along anymore.”

Yin Qin looked at her.

“It’s really terrible.” The moment Luo Xiaolang spoke these words, her expression was vivid, not considering his feelings at all.

Yin Qin refused to believe it.

He abruptly stuffed the beef into his mouth.

Just after he started chewing.

“Oof.” Yin Qin spat it out.

Feeling slightly embarrassed, Yin Qin hurriedly picked up an egg.

He put the egg into his mouth.

“Oof.” Not only was it too salty, but it also had eggshells in it.

Yin Qin picked up a spoonful of soup to rinse his mouth.

Just as he put it in his mouth.

The soup came out in one “puff”.

Holy shit.

What on earth did he cook?!

Wasn’t he supposed to follow the instructions on the app?!

Could it be that these people were just tricking people into using their recipes for clicks?!

They’re all swindlers!

Luo Xiaolang calmly watched Yin Qin’s antics and said, “So, are you leaving now?”

The implication was.

This meal is so horrible; she couldn’t eat it.

Yin Qin didn’t want to leave.

“Whatever.” Luo Xiaolang was truly fed up with Yin Qin.

She got up and left without stopping this time, began to order takeout from the couch.

Yin Qin looked at his unsuccessful cooking attempt, then quietly dumped everything he made for the first time into the trash. After cleaning and washing the dishes and the kitchen, he limped away.

Luo Xiaolang just watched as Yin Qin left dejectedly.

She didn’t know what was wrong with his leg, nor did she bother to ask him.

She didn’t even give him a second look, instead busying herself with some frivolous gossip news on her phone.

Yin Qin left Luo Xiaolang’s home.

His discomfort was now more evident than ever.

He always felt like he couldn’t do anything right. In front of Luo Xiaolang, he must have seemed like an absolute fool.

He called the elevator, preparing to leave.

As soon as the door opened, Yin Qin saw Joe.

Joe also saw Yin Qin.

Joe got off the elevator, but Yin Qin froze for a moment before getting on.

“You looking for Xiaolang?” Joe asked.

His tone was obviously not friendly.

Yin Qin admitted frankly, somewhat irate, “Yes, I am looking for her.”

The thought of Joe coming to sleep with Luo Xiaolang drove Yin Qin mad!

“Haven’t I told you not to bother Luo Xiaolang? I’ll get jealous!”

“Well then, get jealous! It won’t change the fact that I’ll be visiting Luo Xiaolang more often. Besides, what does your jealousy have to do with me?” Yin Qin smarted back in a rather raffish manner.

“Can’t you behave a little? Once broken up, can’t you leave each other alone? Do you have to come here and cause trouble?”

“Who says that after a breakup, we have to live separate lives? I’m warning you, Joe. No, Jiang Changjin, I’m telling you, right from now on, I’m going after Luo Xiaolang again, yes, I’m going to win her back, wrest her away from your side!”

Joe’s face instantly changed.

“Scared now, aren’t you?” Yin Qin’s face was full of satisfaction, “You know as well as I do that I’m attractive and wealthy, and more importantly, Luo Xiaolang and I have a son together. If you think you can’t compete, just break up with Luo Xiaolang. I promise I won’t tell anyone that you were dumped by her. I’ll keep your reputation intact.”

Joe let out a cold chuckle, “Yin, do you think too highly of yourself?”

Yin Qin was somewhat embarrassed by Joe’s response.

“You don’t even know if Luo Xiaolang still likes you or wants to be with you. I suggest you save yourself some dignity!”

“I don’t need dignity; all I want is Luo Xiaolang!” Yin Qin retorted fiercely.

Joe stared at Yin Qin.

“Yes, you’re right. Luo Xiaolang doesn’t like me anymore, she doesn’t want anything to do with me anymore. But what does it matter? I’m going to keep pursuing Luo Xiaolang anyway, even if you manage to marry her! If you have the guts, marry Luo Xiaolang right now! Even if you do, I’ll still be there to steal her away from you. I’ll keep bothering Luo Xiaolang for the rest of my life….”

“Bang!” With that, Joe abruptly swung a hard punch at Yin Qin’s face.

Joe really did not like getting physical.

But he felt he had put up with Yin Qin for far too long.

While he didn’t have much experience with relationships, he at least believed that after a breakup, both parties should make way for one another. He even wondered if Yin Qin was intentionally picking a fight right now.

Yin Qin was utterly stunned by Joe’s punch.

He incredulously stared at the man in front of him.

He actually hit him.

He hit him!

Holy shit.

Even though Yin Qin wanted to hit him first, every time he thought about Joe having bedded Luo Xiaolang, he wanted to smash his head in. Yet, Yin Qin held back. Now, Joe was actually the first person to take a swing!

Holy shit!

Yin Qin was livid.

With a wild surge of energy, he lashed back and managed to land a punch on Joe.

Joe staggered backward from the force of Yin Qin’s punch.

And then.

The two launched into a fierce fight.

Joe was no match for Yin Qin.

While Yin Qin may not be the best, he was a black belt in Taekwondo. Aside from Luo Xiaolang, who was outrageously strong, Yin Qin could easily take down anyone else!

He found the fight satisfying.

He thought to himself, let this be the punishment for sleeping with Luo Xiaolang. Sleep with her now!

His goal was to beat Joe so badly that he couldn’t perform in bed. Then he could see how Joe would sleep with Luo Xiaolang!

Yin Qin was seeing red.

Luo Xiaolang’s takeout had arrived.

Luo Xiaolang opened the door to wait for the delivery, only to be stunned by the sight of Yin Qin and Joe brawling.

Yin Qin was sitting on top of Joe, clearly having the upper hand, throwing punches at Joe.

Joe seemed to have little strength left to fight back.

At that moment, Luo Xiaolang was filled with fury.

She suddenly kicked Yin Qin hard in the back.

Yin Qin immediately stopped pummeling Joe.

He felt as if his bones were about to break, his whole body froze in place. Before he could catch his breath, someone shoved him aside.

Yin Qin rolled across the floor.

He just watched as Luo Xiaolang rushed over to Joe, looked at Joe’s badly beaten face with concern, and called out anxiously, “Joe, how are you?”

Joe looked up at Luo Xiaolang.

Not good.

He never thought Yin Qin could fight so well.

He even thought that Yin Qin was going to beat him to death.

But at that moment, he still managed to smile faintly, “I’ll be fine.”

Obviously, his voice was very weak.

Luo Xiaolang turned her head and glared fiercely at Yin Qin, who was lying on the ground.

Yin Qin sensed Luo Xiaolang’s gaze and, as if infused with fresh energy, sprang up from the ground with a triumphant expression, “Your man is so weak!”

With each passing second, Luo Xiaolang’s restrained irritations began to crumble.

Yet the oblivious Yin Qin just leisurely got up from the ground.

Sheesh…

Man, that hurt! Luo Xiaolang’s kick must have intended to break his bones!

He managed to stand up, despite the pain.

Looking down at the two of them, his smirk returned, “Luo Xiaolang, you’re into this kind of delicate man? I didn’t realize your taste was so — ordinary!”

Luo Xiaolang clenched her fists.

As Yin Qin ambled toward the elevator, he casually added, “By the way, you probably can’t sleep together tonight.”

Seeing the state Joe was in.

It probably wasn’t looking good.

Yin Qin’s grin was pure wickedness, “Serves you right!”
